Ms. Megan, Director - I graduated from Colby-Sawyer College with a Degree in Early Childhood Education. After school, I realized I have always had a strong interest in young children and wanted to enrich their lives through education. I took a position at an Early Childhood Enrichment Center where I worked in a variety of positions (Infant/Toddler/Pre-School teacher and then became the Director).
When the center closed, I decided that I wanted a career change and went to work at an Early Intervention Center working with young children who had special needs. I was there for six years and truly enjoyed it.
When the opportunity arose for me to join the team here at The Goddard School I felt with my experience and passion and their accredited curriculum that it would be a perfect match. We have a solid management team and amazing teaching professionals.
I am excited to come to work each day to watch the families and staff grow into one big family.
